Traveler Reviews

Small tour of Porto sweet food wine Maria is such a great host. Her passion for food and wine is present in her speech! She took us on a walking tour of Porto, hitting her personal spots. The food and wines are divine and Maria is just a pleasure to talk to. Her knowledge of Porto is remarkable. If you come to Porto, book with Maria.

We visit the old and not a tourist local, best local meals, and good companion with Maria Joao. A great local host and a speak friendly English... GREAT! We also go an a tour at Bairrada, to try the locals wines, a small pork, called "leitão". What a great tour.

Be prepared to eat a lot. This tour starts with a typical Porto breakfast consisting of coffee with a pastry (Jesuita). After that we kept walking and reached the farmers market where we had a snack consisting of bacalao (codfish), cavala and sardines with bread, chorizos and hams and wines. We kept walking and had lunch at Santiago where we had the traditional franceschina. Our tour guide Maria is a chef and a wine expert and as so took us to eat and drink the best of Porto. Mari we will be back!

Our Guide Maria was an excellent tour guide. Excellent knowledge of the local area, it’s food culture and just general overall knowledge of the Country. Very friendly and personable

Maria was more than just a guide to the food and wine of Portugal, she was a charming host who engaged with us in the history, art and architecture of Porto. And of course we ate the most delicious food and learned about the wines and ports of the Douro Valley. A wonderful experience.
